partail downloads why???

Post by Bebop0083 » Thu Sep 11, 2003 6:55 pm

ok ive been downloading some local downloads lately and for some reason i keep getting partail dl. does it have some thing to do with the way they uploaded the video or do i have to go into xp and change some thing under performance and maintence? or do i just need a faster internet connection like cabel or dsl? cause this is really getting annoying so if some one could help id appreciate it.

The ORG has been getting hit pretty heavy. My downloads aren't as fast as they were before.

With a 56K modem you have higher latency and a bigger chance of getting a timeout which would close your connection to the ORG. When this happens sometimes IE will give you an error msg, other times it'll act like the download completed.

The only way around this is to use a download resumer. Mozilla, Opera & FreshDownload seem to work. I know Opera works becuase I tried it, but I wasn't able to get FreshDownload working(OzzieArcane was). I do not have Mozilla, so I was unable to test that.

yeah ive been getting it where it acts like its been completed but its not. think you can leave a link to the opera(SP) resumer? doubt thatll work though since mine acts like it completes itself. unless i try using my internet explorer with it. i guess i need to get cable or dsl.

We're up to 30mbps now, they should be fast again.
